Your spec is far from clear; this is based on what I read from it (print the "state" line immediately AFTER "Name" line only, then print "Retention" lines up to next "Name" line. Not sure if you want "inactive" states only?):

Code:

awk '
        {sub (/^ */, _)
        }
/Name/  {printf "%s%s", TRS, $0
         TRS = RS
         NM = 1
         next
        }
NM      {printf "\t%s", $0
         NM = 0
         next   
        }
/Ret/   {printf "\t%s", $0
        }
END     {printf RS
        }
' file
Name: MEANS_SLP_DAILY	State: inactive	Retention Level: 3 (1 month)	Retention Level: 3 (1 month)	Retention Level: 3 (1 month)
Name: MEANS_SLP_WEEKLY	State: inactive	Retention Level: 3 (1 month)	Retention Level: 3 (1 month)	Retention Level: 3 (1 month)
Name: SLP_Irv_Arlington_Test	State: active	Retention Level: 1 (2 weeks)	Retention Level: 1 (2 weeks)	Retention Level: 1 (2 weeks)
